Using molecular dynamics simulations, we show that the prion protein (PrP) exhibits a dual behavior, with two possible transition routes, upon protonation of H187 around pH 4.5, which mimics specific conditions encountered in endosomes. Our results suggest ...
We perform a replica exchange molecular dynamics simulation corresponding to a 2.8 mu s total time for the extensive enhanced sampling of the conformational space of the C-terminal part (residues 124-226) of the mouse prion protein (PrP); 1.3% of the confo ...
Neurodegenerative diseases such as Alzheimer's disease, Parkinson's disease and Huntington's disease share common mechanisms characterized by protein misfolding and aggregation, including formation of plaques or inclusion bodies. The rapid growing number o ...
The aggregation of proteins is central to many aspects of daily life, including food processing, blood coagulation, eye cataract formation disease and prion-related neurodegenerative infections[1–5]. However, the physical mechanisms responsible for amyloid ...
The doppel (Dpl) and prion (PrP) proteins share a very similar fold (three helices and two short beta-strands), while they differ significantly in sequence (only 25% homologous) and in disease-related beta-rich conformations that occur for PrP only. In a p ...
In the context of an ageing society neurodegenerative disease have become more and more frequent among humans. Opposing the benefits of a longer life, these diseases have thus triggered research on neurons and how they interact with each other. In vitro as ...
Molecular probes for selective Identification of protein aggregates are important to advance our understanding of the molecular pathogenesis underlying cerebral amyloidoses. Here we report the chemical design of pentameric thiophene derivatives, denoted lu ...
Prion diseases are untreatable neurodegenerative disorders characterized by accumulation of PrP(Sc), an aggregated isoform of the normal prion protein PrP(C). Here, we delivered the soluble prion antagonist PrP-Fc(2) to the brains of mice by lentiviral gen ...
Aggregation and fibril formation of amyloid-β (Aβ) peptides play a pivotal role in the pathogenesis of Alzheimer's disease (AD). Aβ peptides, principally comprising of 40 or 42 amino acid residues (Aβ40 and Aβ42), are produced by proteolytic processing of ...
The molecular chaperone Hsp104 plays a central role in the clearance of aggregates after heat shock and the propagation of yeast prions. Hsp104's disaggregation activity and prion propagation have been linked to its ability to resolubilize or remodel prote ...
